Waaaaaah!
Waaaaaahhhh!
So, ORIGIN part two will start on Monday, September 4th 2006. So, you’ll get two weeks of randomy stuff. You know, whatever is on my mind. I can’t wait to get back to ORIGIN though, but I want to do it up right, and give the people who’ve been itching for old fashioned Yirmumah what they’ve been after. Yeah, I heard your e-mails and bantering. So, here you go.
THANKS to the kickbutt monthly sponsors.

So THAT’S what it stands for…

“I’ve emailed the artist!! I MUST BE IMPORTANT!! I’LL RANT AND SLATTHER IN REVENGE!!!”
WAAAAAAAAAAAH
August 21st, 2006 at 8:00 am
Ahahaha, good one DJ, I couldn’t have summed it up better myself.
August 21st, 2006 at 9:13 am
While that isn’t the most disgusting panel I’ve ever seen, that is the most disgusting panel #7 I’ve ever seen.
August 21st, 2006 at 9:18 am
OK, I laughed, I liked it. But weren’t you leaving this incident behind?
August 21st, 2006 at 9:56 am
Six years, two hundred different webcomics, all the archives I can find–this is the hardest I’ve laughed at a comic since I can remember! You have just summed up one of the most crucial aspects of the internet in a way that ought to be immortalized everywhere–especially on the index board of every forum on the world-wide-web.
Thank you. God bless you DJ.
August 21st, 2006 at 10:07 am
believe it or not
in the law enforcement division i work in
we get lot of calls for namecalling on the interweb.
when we’re done laughing, we do nothing about it.
except laugh some more.
August 21st, 2006 at 10:13 am
Schrodd– since I had an ongoing story going those days, I figured I’d give this matter a nice closing epilogue that makes everyone look dumb.
August 21st, 2006 at 10:37 am
Deej, you have definitely succeeded. And it’s nice that you did not spare yourself either.
August 21st, 2006 at 11:05 am
So — the apology was real?
Confused.

August 21st, 2006 at 11:57 am
Well, just for the record, then, and I HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO SET YOU STRAIGHT ON THIS AGAIN, COFFMAN — I do *not* have a faggy amulet thing holding my cape together at my neck. I quit wearing that costume in the Bronze Age! My cape is sewn to the shoulders of my costume, like Superman!
WAAAHHHHH!
Joey

August 21st, 2006 at 12:01 pm
I thought Superman’s cape was digitally rendered?
Tucking it at the shoulders is soooo 1963!
August 21st, 2006 at 12:11 pm
Duely noted Joey. Have you thought of ditching the cape thing all together and maybe doing the trenchcoat type dealy?
I also don’t believe you have a jar of vaseline near your keyboard. I often throw that in when I draw people’s desktops.
August 21st, 2006 at 12:19 pm
Wow, I couldn’t have put it any better. And I tried. I usually couldn’t care less about webcomic drama, but like the “Dick and Fart Joke” article, this instance really pissed me off. Joey just has a way of getting under my skin, I guess.
August 21st, 2006 at 12:30 pm
I wondered what that was.
Also, you drew my dildo on fire. I didn’t get that at all.

August 21st, 2006 at 3:15 pm
I’d get one of those, but it’d always be out of power.
August 21st, 2006 at 3:45 pm
My computer runs on thetians and placenta.
August 21st, 2006 at 3:48 pm
This little chick has NO idea what inspired this, but i had to post something. Echoing Phil up there, this comic sums up that which we call the ‘intarweb’. lmao, roffle, etc. ^^
Thanks, keep up the awesome.
August 21st, 2006 at 3:51 pm
Aren’t you capable - whether as a supposed artist or even as a dubiously considered male - of simply dropping your charade of male righteousness and just admitting to your mostly male audience that , in fact , you WERE and ARE wrong ? Draw , write , and mock sarcastic to your limited abilities hearts delight but in the end the right people know the real truth .
August 21st, 2006 at 4:00 pm
The real truth that DJ is one funny motherfucker who’s not afraid to say what’s on his mind? That’s my kinda truth, all right!
You know, Joey, to cover all the bases you could attach a cape to a trenchcoat. That’d be sweet, man. Cutting-edge.
P.S. Damn, I love Junior Mints.
August 21st, 2006 at 4:28 pm
Dear Diane R.,
Blah, blah, blah.
This female audience member thinks you’re a right old cow.
And, by the way: Waahhhh.
Get the efh over it.
August 21st, 2006 at 4:54 pm
Diane my dear, your the kind of woman that gives feminists a bad name. He’s already apologised, so leave it! Your camp has thrown its fair share of insults around also, in addition to trying to screw up job contacts for him- your classy I must say. Is it OK when you insult DJ because your a female and you didnt use any magic buzz words? That’s a a double standard if ever I saw one. Yours truly…
Craig Taylor.
P.S. By the way, DIFTIA…
August 21st, 2006 at 6:27 pm
Great stuff. Keep up the good work.
August 21st, 2006 at 6:43 pm
Your cronies responses are valid proof of precisely my point , D.J . Honestly , why don’t you even have the guts to so much as print your full name on your strip , hmmm ? JUST initials for a first name is JUST like writing out what your gender - biased goons drool after : sub par jock humor . Good luck in your future - initials for a name boy.
August 21st, 2006 at 6:59 pm
Man, this was a great strip. I don’t think it invalidates any apology I’ve read, which was pretty much more than most folks offer. In a way I sorta think of venting by way of art to be much more high class than any kind of writing. And there’s plenty to vent about - this strip is somewhat universal. And it includes self-deprication!
August 21st, 2006 at 7:36 pm
Diane, I would like to point out how hollow your jibes at DJ are.
First of all, I can only guess that “dubiously considered male” means that it’s hard to tell whether DJ is male or female. He looks like a man to me.
Second, the statment “you even have the guts to so much as print your full name on your strip” implies that using a nickname is a sign of cowardace. If you look at the life of Samuel Clemens, you’ll find that he’s no coward.
Third, I don’t see how Origin is “sub par jock humor.”
With that, I’d like to ask you to take your venom elsewhere, after all, we are fueled by venom.
August 21st, 2006 at 7:47 pm
go craig go.
DIAFTIA! indeed.
August 21st, 2006 at 8:26 pm
That “you’re so stupidly manly you have to use your initials to sign your comic ZOMGLOLZ!!!11″ comment…am I the only one that can’t figure out what the FUCK this bitch is talking about?
Christ. What color is the sky in your little world?
And where’s Prim, goddammit? He needs to get in on this action.
August 21st, 2006 at 8:26 pm
Uh, Diane? DJ actually posts his last name up, which is more than you just did. And this female reader also says, WAAHH WAHHH WAHHH to you too. You are behaving like a bitch when you try to screw someone’s employment over a blog fight like a big baby. Two wrongs do not make a right, and you WAY exceeded anything he might have done by your own behavior. Not to mention, if you read his comic I think you would see that DJ is a person that obviously cares for his wife and family and is not some mysogynist like you want to insist because it’s convenient. It’s called a sense of humor, try it. The comic above is funny.
DJ, you’ll have to add another panel. “You don’t use your full name on the internet! WAAAAAAHHHHHH!”. That has got to be the most absurd thing I’ve heard in a while. And in any case it didn’t stop you bitching to his real editor in real life. Put a sock in it.
August 21st, 2006 at 8:31 pm
Diane just needs a good fisting. It’ll loosen her up a bit and get her all giggly again. Nothing forced because that would be ungentlemanly like and it’s no fun if she don’t want it.
I am only using a bit of “sub par jock humor”. I’d rather cuddle on the couch and watch movies. I should pick up more popcorn. Drama watching requires a lot of popcorn.
August 21st, 2006 at 8:35 pm
“just needs a good fisting”…ain’t that the truth.
I get the feeling she’s going to wear out her chubby little fingers typing shit left and right until we all agree that she’s right and DJ’s some horrible, hairy-chested misogynistic asshole.
*shrug* I guess everyone’s gotta have a hobby. Good luck with that, Fist-Lady!
August 21st, 2006 at 9:51 pm
So yeah some people just don’t get jokes.
Which I understand because after all the internet is serious business and people never make jokes or jabs at eachother. No I mean what do you think this is, a free medium to speak your mind?
MADNESS I TELL YOU MADNESS!
August 21st, 2006 at 10:23 pm
You know Diane, when you blog about this later in your ridiculously pathetic livejournal, blogspot or MySpace account, I want you to be SURE that you know that a woman (wymmin? is that better?) served you up on a damn platter, okay?
Cronies? CRONIES?
Far from it, dearest. I appreciate this comic and its creator because he does something that I don’t see in your bog-standard newspaper submission.
I KNEW, (and stated as can be attested by others who have posted here) that if any of us stood up for DJ’s posting of this comic or defence of his words the other day would be called “ball-licking syncophants”…which I can assure you most (if not all) of us are not.
You know, I don’t want the comics and webcomics world to be a “boy’s only” club either. Which is why I support GOOD comics created by women. Don’t come around singing your song of dissent because you think something is exclusively male and it’s not. Or, if it is, claim some kind of sexism or censorship because you have a fucking vadge. Let me spell it out: L. A. M. E.
One of the reasons I’m here: I have seen DJ promote and push other artisits because of their talent, not their sex. Take your cock-ass argument somewhere else. Seriously. It’s not going to get you anywhere here.
In your eyes we’re all either dudes with our cocks in our fists or masculated women with something to prove.
Again, I can assure you, I’m neither, and I will continue to read this comic for no other reason than it and it’s creator are damn GOOD.
Love you, but eat me, and get over yourself.
I’m done.
August 21st, 2006 at 10:27 pm
Mmm … Can you taste the hate? Like acid drops and lemon pops.
Diane - a subspecies of soulless demons which stalk the shadows and prey on those infinitely cooler than they.
DJ - my new personal god.

Also: DJ is considered a full legal name. Suck it, etymology-abuser.
August 21st, 2006 at 10:55 pm
Wahhhhhhh!
August 21st, 2006 at 11:22 pm
I can’t be the only one who thinks DJ *did* tone it down. Ain’t no venom-spitting cobra in this strip.
August 21st, 2006 at 11:42 pm
Psuedo,
When she eats you, could you take pics and post them just for um.. archival purposes? (I couldn’t resist that “sub par jock humor”. ) ;-P
I agree with what you posted.
I enjoy good comics regardless of whether a woman, man, or a room full of Bob clones draws them. I used to draw quite a bit when I was younger and more sane now I appreciate the works of others better than I ever did when I picked up a pen.
I miss the pen.
I like DJ. He only tells me to STFU on STFU Day.
August 21st, 2006 at 11:51 pm
Hey– its STFU MONTH! — November.
August 22nd, 2006 at 12:13 am
I’ll remember to keep tradition alive and post something worthy then….well once..
You should only have to tell someone to STFU once on STFU month.
The Drama LLama must be giddy with all the drama lately, eh?
August 22nd, 2006 at 12:45 am

Way to turn it around man…

PEACE OUT!!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!
August 22nd, 2006 at 1:48 am
Remember, ladies, if you dare to complain about mouth-breathers who go around calling women bitches, you’re “giving feminists a bad name.” Also, you deserve a fist up your cunt.
Don’t forget, now! Otherwise, you’ll piss off Coffman, and several weeks later he might come up with a brilliant retort like drawing a half-assed picture of you looking dumb! That would be SO SCARY!
August 22nd, 2006 at 1:55 am
Shut up you loopy foo! WAHHHHH!!!
There are plenty of women here reading, DUHR.
Learn to take a joke. And so what if someone called you or someone else a bitch? And you’re putting words in DJ’s mouth again. Be gone.
WAAAAAAA.
August 22nd, 2006 at 2:35 am
**Shaenon Says: **
“Remember Boys… It doesn’t matter who said what.. IF you be the bigger man and apologize, EVEN AFTER some reactionary feminazi takes it to a LAWSUIT LEVEL. You will still be wrong for siding against women!
You will ALWAYS be a misogynist, because having anything negative to say ABOUT women means you hate and degrade them!
Saying the word BITCH, is equivalent to wife beating, slave trading, and Leisure suit-wearing!!!! Context be damned!
Women CAN’T be wrong…. Because men are such mout breathing NEANDERTHALS, that they need a woman to point out the errors of their ways. IN ALL THINGS!!! (sorry about the toilet seat dear… again..)
oh..
and
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
August 22nd, 2006 at 2:44 am
Shaenon,
Your sarcasm is so sexy, you crazy bitch. I’ll bring the glove. You bring the lube. You can sing cute feminism songs in my ear while I gently pluck your ovaries like the strings on a ukelele.
If you’re willing, we’ll make some beautiful music together, baby.
August 22nd, 2006 at 2:50 am
Oh, feminazis here too!
I’m going to call some of my friends (boys, girls, and trans), and take a laugh on them.
WAAAH!
August 22nd, 2006 at 3:50 am
This certainly has been some of the most entertaining web comics drama that I’ve seen in a long time.
And after watching the William Shatner roast last night, some of the more sensitive people involved in the drama better hope they never get roasted, because if you think DJ’s comment was so bad, you haven’t seen anything. Now these jokes were brutal and merciless. DJ’s little joke was quite tame by comparison.
Of course, the roasters have a much better sense of humor than some people.
August 22nd, 2006 at 3:56 am
Shaenon, that stick up your ass looks painful.
I hope the surgury goes well.
Get well soon.
August 22nd, 2006 at 6:15 am
Can’t we all just get along?
(Joey: Bravo for handling this well — raising a point about how this reflects on the previously tendered apology, but otherwise working to calm things down).
(Shaenon: Hopefully the behavior of an a**hole or two in the audience isn’t reflecting excessively on our host? Which is not to say that DJ’s behavior has been impeccable — but he certainly doesn’t need the karmic association with the behavior of some of the forum-folk here. Oh — and webcomic idols fighting with each other makes Baby Jesus cry).
(Eddie: Please stop. You’re tainting folks here by association).
(DJ: Damnit, I thought this drama was over! Which is not to say that anything you’re saying here is *wrong*, necessarily, but “over” is arguably considerably more important than “won” in this kind of context. Knowing when to consider an issue dead is a Good Thing).
August 22nd, 2006 at 7:22 am
Duff, way to insult some folks and throw a few rim jobs out there.
We’ll be handing out some towels so they can dry up their assholes. You left them dripping.
Most of my comments were meant to be humorous if not out right fucking ridiculous because this whole drama was both to me.
From what little I know or bothered to remember because it wasn’t important to, DJ made a joke some where. DJ offended someone. DJ apologized. DJ drew a comic which was a joke about it all after the fact but also was similar to typical online drama bullshit that I’ve seen on the internet for the last decade or so in one form or another. The comic was funny. I didn’t give a damn who those characters in the comic did or didn’t resemble. It didn’t and shouldn’t have mattered. The comic was still funny in spite of it.
To summarize it all while you rinse the taste of ass out of your mouth with your morning coffee, have a sense of humor and lighten up.
Do you feel tainted now, Duff?
August 22nd, 2006 at 8:37 am
People who think they know everything always have the most to say.
August 22nd, 2006 at 8:43 am
Super late to the party but I did want to add this.
If Mr. Coffman is such a coward, why does he regularly post his picture?
Ya know…just asking *shrugs*
Eddie Yir kill’n me
August 22nd, 2006 at 9:18 am
DJ,
You have no idea how perfectly the timing of this comic fits into my life.
In my last three comics over at Theater Hopper, I was taking the piss out of Snakes On A Plane calling it “overhyped tripe” and it was like throwing a grenade in a fireworks factory. Unbelievable how people can twist a joke around and take it personally.
August 22nd, 2006 at 9:32 am
Tom,
Why don’t you shut up you SNAKE HATER! I’m gonna….
WAHHHHHHH….
August 22nd, 2006 at 10:57 am
I would have seen it if we still had $1 movie night here. I used to see bad movies with some friends. We’d sit there and loudly make fun of the movie. I actually had a guy get pissed at me until I asked him how much he paid for the movie. The funny part is he joined in and cracked some better jokes about the movie than we did. It was fun.
Tom, I think if they get angry then you were too honest. The sheep tend to hate honesty because it wakes them up from that dream world where Snakes On A Plane is the best movie ever.
I think Samuel L. Jackson is going to turn into Christopher Lambert some day.
“You liked him in Highlander. Now see him as Cookie Monster’s Retarded Brother, Chewy, in Sesame Street Goes To Hell. The Children’s Television Workshop will never be the same again.”
August 22nd, 2006 at 10:58 am
Not as late as I am Screw…. Anyway, leave her alone you guys… For the love of God, she came to the party with “Initials for a name boy..”…. Isn’t it obvious to you all that she’s out of ammo?
And if she’s not, then she’s completely incapable of actually going against any one of us let alone the entire Yir-Army….
Initials for a name boy… I giggle every time I read that…. It’s so…. infantile…..
And Diane, DJ doesn’t use his name as a courtesy to me. You see, his real name is a tribal curse in my religion and culture. Out of the kindness of this man’s heart, he has stopped using his name so as to not insult me.
And as Diane has become synonymous with… well, something else, you shall from this time forth be known to be as WB. Pronounced “Dub Bee”, it can mean anything you like… You wonderful beauty you…
August 22nd, 2006 at 11:42 am
“Theater Hopper”, huh? Why should anyone listen to someone who promotes theft of ticket sales? Unlike you, jumping from theatre to theatre like a buccaneer of the balconies, those people paid good money to get SOAP in their eyes, and they have to justify that to themselves. If you’re dissing the hissing, you’re dissing them, thus the hissy fit. Bully.
August 22nd, 2006 at 12:47 pm
Munan FTW
“dissing the hissing”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA
Now I’ve read it all
I loves me some bonafide crap.
SOAP looks like a fun goofy movie.
One that would suit my tastes.
Something I would go to see at a 2nd run theater or something I would Netflix.
Something I would watch after a few beers and go MiSTie on with my buddies.
SOAP is not something I would pay top dollar for.
No way.
I have to say this again.
When it comes to movie badasses Sam Jackson is no Lawrence Fishburne.
Niether of which come close to Jim Brown or Richard Roundtree.
August 22nd, 2006 at 1:08 pm
I still really love Junior Mints. In case anyone was wondering. Mmm.
August 22nd, 2006 at 1:39 pm
I will make a t-shirt that says “Theater Hopper: Dissing the hissing since 2006″ and neglect to pay you any royalties.
When that is over, I’ll take your mother to a nice steak dinner and then never call her again!
